Medal-set: 'KvK 2. Klasse o. Schwn.' being a non-maker-marked (and 'Buntmetall'-based!) specimen that comes stored in its (unusually seen!) unmarked and 'Cellophan'-based pouch
This is an attractive - and matching! - medal-set: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwertern' (or: War Merits' Cross second class without swords) comprising of a non-maker-marked and/or neatly 'Buntmetall'-based specimen that came still packed in its original (and unusually 'Cellophan'-based!) pouch and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. I deem issued- but simply never worn- not even mounted-), condition. The medal came together with its original, minimally confectioned, orange-red-coloured and pre-folded (and approx. 19 cms. long-sized) ribbon and came packed in its neat (somewhat larger-sized 'Cellophan'-based) pouch (which is fully complete but that shows some minor tears and handling as can be seen on the pictures). The medal - which is a very nicely preserved 'Buntmetall'-based specimen - was I deem issued but simply never used nor worn. The medal has a quite 'shiny' (ie. darkened-bronze) coloured age-patina and was most certainly never cleaned nor polished and therefore are details and/or finish still very nice and/or crisp. The pouch comes as stated above in an equally nicely preserved condition: it shows the printed (blue-toned) designation: 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwerter' but is totally void of a makers'-designation or alike. It should be noted that the 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 2. Klasse ohne Schwertern'-award is quite commonly encountered: those matching sets are most certainly NOT. This particular example originates from a larger KVK-collection that was compiled over many years and that I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply one of the nicest, and fully matching 'KvK II.Kl. ohne Schwertern'-medal-sets I had on offer for quite some time!
